The end of March was also the end of an era on Telegraph Avenue. Mario and Rosalinda Tejada, the couple that opened Mario’s La Fiesta in 1959, rode off into the sunset with a big goodbye fiesta last night.

The restaurant moved from its original location to the corner of Telegraph and Haste last year. Now, the Tejadas have sold the institution to a new regime.

But don’t worry too much, at least not yet. Not much is changing on the surface. The new owner, Manny Lopez, won’t be changing the menu and there won’t be an extended closure.

There’s a new name. though, taking effect in about five days: Remy’s Mexican Restaurant.
